POOL OPENS - July 5 President Jasperson Takes First Official Plunge

July 5, at four a.m., according to schedule, the campus cool spot, the Madison College swimming pool, opened for business. As the day had been set aside for the celebration of the Fourth and as there were no classes and very little work, almost all of the stu-dents put in a full day of swim-ming and then relaxed in the evening while watching the pic-ture "Rainbow on the River," which was shown in front of As-sembly Hall.

The pool was opened officiallY when President A. A. Jasperson made the plunge at precisely 3:45 a.m., and from that time on the swim has been on.

However, President Jasperson was not the first one in the pool. On the night of the Fourth, with the news out that the swimming pool was being filled, strange things happened. At ten p.m. the girls serenaded both of the boys' dorms, hoping to put the occu-pants fast asleep. The fellows from Assembly Hall and Wasiota Hall appreciated the singing, and after the girls left decided to go to see how full the swimming pool was —and maybe swim a little.

But, lo and behold, upon arrival at the pool what should greet their eyes but the sight of every girl in the dorm enjoying the Fool water! To top everything off, it came to light that Dr. William Sandborn, dean of the college, had known of the girls' plans and had betrayed his fellowmen; for, ac-cording to plans, the fellows were to be the first to swim in the pool. For his actions Dean Sandborn Fame very close to being thrown into the pool, clothes and all, by several of the boys and some of the male faculty members who also had planned to get an early swim.

Madison College faces the school year of 1954-55 with a spirit of optimism. Every indication on every hand promises an excellent school year ahead. Applications are rolling in by the dozens. Stu dents are flocking into the college in droves. Nearly sixty new stu-dents have come in since the close of the spring quarter.

The summer school enrollment is the largest in several years. Over two hundred students are enrolled in summer classes.

Students are coming from far and near. Recently four fine young men came up from Brazil. They arrived in the States without hav-ing applied for admission to the college. They called long distance from Miami, and said, "We want to come to Madison." Naturally what could we do but say, "Come on."

After being here a few days, one was so impressed that he said.

"When we return to Brazil we can send back forty young people who need the Madison training."

And so they come—from Brazil, Cuba, Puerto Rico, Colombia, Pan-ama, Peru, Chile, Turks Isles, Honduras, China, Japan, Korea, Germany, England, Hawaii, Aus-tralia, Turkey, and Canada. They come to Madison to learn the principles of self-supporting mis-sionary training so that they can return to their homes to put these principles into practice.

Bill and Olga Howard are the proud parents of a nice-looking five-pound, eight and three-quarter- ounce, foot-and-a-half-long baby boy, born July 11. From what 1 can gather from the grapevine, Daddy Howard, a student nurse, thinks his son is quite the boy.

Some more newcomers to the campus are Ed and Juanelle Hurt. Ed is currently working in the cabinet shop and will start his training as a lab technician in the 'fall quarter. Juanelle, sister of Imogene Meeks, is helping Dr. Gish with his employment prob-lems. They have two children—Monte, 16 months, and Barry, five years. They come to us from Win-ter Haven, Florida.

It has been some time since a Texan has appeared in this article, but I just couldn't hold off any longer. Don Wilson, brother of Harlan Wilson, former lab student here, is here to take X-ray. His wife, Jewell, is working in the registrar's office.

Mr. Cleo Boyer, who has been in the hospital with two broken legs for the last six weeks, is now at home and seems to be doing nicely.

Bill and Cecil Park have re-turned from their vacation trip to Miami, Florida. While there they went on a beach party with the Doyle. Martins, L. 3. and Daisy Bryant, and Eddie and Joyce Burn-side. Bill will turn a little red when you ask him about the time he went to sleep on the beach, but not as red as he was when he awoke from his nap. The follow-ing three nights were very miser-able ones, according to Bill.

Patient for a Day "Patient for a Day" was an ex-

periment of the Nursing Arts Class to teach student nurses what it feels like to be the patient.

Four "probies" were put to bed one evening in the Nursing Arts classroom, and one of their class-mates acted as their nurse. These four patients were given medical diagnosis and were placed on com-plete bed rest, which meant they could do nothing for themselves. They were fed, bathed, and turned by the nurse on duty.

The nurses only were informed of what the project would be. The four patients—Pat Gaulding, Helen Wright, Patsy Wilson, and Evelyn Moore—stayed puzzled until the time of admission.

The patients state that they had a good time while lying in bed, and besides, that they gained much valuable information for further use with their patients. They know how it feels to lie flat in bed for a long period of time, how much privacy means, how dependent a patient on complete bed rest is on

and Elsie Brown, who spent their vacation in Jacksonville.

I don't care too much about writing about myself, but I took a vacation too. My wife Dorothy, Nell Arashiro, and Ruben Perales and I went to Bozeman, Montana, and worked at the Deaconess Hos-pital there, got some good experi-ence, and made our trip expenses at the same time.

Everything was fine until early one morning when my foot got a trifle heavy on the accelerator. Nebraska has a speed limit of 50 miles an hour at night, and I was doing 70. Patrolman Skinner con-vinced me that it pays to obey man-made laws as well as God's laws. Paying fines seems just like throwing money -out the window.

We were very sorry to hear that Jose Rodriguez was called home to Cuba because of his brother's very serious motorcycle accident, which later proved to be fatal. Our heartfelt sympathies go out to you, Jose, in your bereavement.

dround the San DR. AND MRS. CALEB CHU and

three children have arrived on the campus, where they will make their home for some time. Dr. Chu is to be assistant to Dr. James Schuler in surgery, and Mrs. Chu is taking the course in Anesthesia. Dr. Chu, a graduate of the Army Medical College in China, interned at the Washing-ton Sanitarium and then spent a year at the University of Penn-sylvania, taking a course in gener-al surgery. Following this he had a two-year residency in surgery at the Doctors Hospital in Wash-ington, D.C. Mrs. Chu is a grad-uate of the Shanghai Sanitarium, at Shanghai, China.

MISS HUEI-MING LEE, from Chi-ling, China, is a new Anesthesia student. A graduate of the Chiling Nursing School, class of 1948, she has worked in the National Nan-king Hospital, the Taiwan Uni-versity Hospital in Formosa, and the Tokyo Hospital in Japan.

In Germany she visited Hitler's retreat in Berchtesgaden; Augs-burg—the city of Luther and Me-lanchthon; the highest tower in Europe at Ulm; the Seventh-day Adventist center at Stuttgart; Bretten, which is the birthplace of Melanchthon and also of Dr. Dittes' father; the Seventh-day

Music Head Attends Convention

Professor Harold E. It! itzelfelt represented the Madison College; Music Department at the Seventh-day Adventist music teachers' con-vention held at La Sierra College. Arlington, California, June 7-14. Harold B. Hannum, organist and , head of the Music Department of La Sierra College, acted as chair-man. Representatives from all the Seventh-day Adventist colleges of

America, including Helderberg College of South Africa, attended. ,

The topics presented covered a tremendous scope. Professor Mit-zelfelt

presented the topic, "Bene-

fits Derived by Students in Or• ganizational Participation." Two of the chief recommendations of the convention were: "That the financial statements of the music department be considered a part of the educational financial re-port inasmuch as much of the work and responsibilities are without remuneration;" and "That the conference educational lead-ers in planning their conventions and rallies take advantage of avail-able musical talent in our colleges and also avail themselves of con-sultation with college music teach-ers who are well-experienced and trained in the sacred music liter-ature." This would discourage questionable choruses of light friv-olous texture and would promote a more reverent repertoire.

Professor Mitzelfelt was well pleased with the progress made at the convention in discussing the various problems and their pos-sible solutions. He highly recom-mends attendance by Madison teachers at future conventions.

Dr. Dittes' chapel talk on Toes• day was the first of a series in which she will tell of her visits to these places and also give a first-hand report of conditions as they exist in war countries.

Cditor'i Pen Although it seems dreadful to

have to work and go to classes in such hot weather, I have noticed that faces have been brighter recently. It must be that folks are enjoying those good swims in Madison College's new swimming pool. And is it ever a beauty! It's the "talk of the town."

May I here include a note of appreciation and thanks to Dean Sandborn and his fellow faculty members and the students who donated their time and hard work on the pool. Also we should thank all, including old and new stu-dents and friends, who gave lib-erally to increase our swimming pool fund. And- you can be sure that everyone is proud of this wonderful new addition to our campus.

We can also count many other blessings even in this seemingly unbearable weather. We have plenty of cool, refreshing water to drink. We all have good beds to sleep on, food to eat, and clothes to wear. But best of all we have a Saviour who gave his life that we might live and tell others of his love for us. Let us all practice being more grateful and also practice telling others of the wonderful love of God. It will keep us more cheerful and happy and help others to feel the same way.

And remember, after several more weeks the weather will be- come more comfortable and we will be looking forward to Christ- mas! j.a.c.

Many topics become the ob-jects of conversation in the Music Department in addition to music, as you can well imagine. Since the advent of Madison's own swim-ming pool, of course swimming rates high on the list of things to talk about. We must admit that all this talk about "family night," or morning or afternoon as the case may be, sounds downright invit-ing, but thus far we haven't tak-en advantage of it. Perhaps the reason is that the most essential item in our swimming wardrobe is lacking—a bathing suit!

In connection with the produc-tion of proper vocal tones, we are informed that swimming is bene-ficial in developing the abdominal muscles and the diaphragm. One disadvantage, however, was quite evident a day or so after the pool opened—so many people com-plained of their (ouch) sunburns. JoAnn Gibbons and Joyce Chris-tensen were ordered to rest and to imbibe cold drinks freely for re-lief from a sunburn-produced fe-ver.

Here's another way to cool off at least one evening a week. The Peabody College summer concerts are being attended quite regularly by the members of the Music Lit-erature class as a class require went. The summer evenings have been a delightful setting for the outdoor concerts which begin ev-ery Thursday night at 8 p.m. These free concerts will continue through August 5 and 6, when Strauss's "Die Fledermaus" will be produced.

The remainder of this column is an obituary for two recent cas-ualties involving members of the animal kingdom. The first, the resident of a watery habitat, ar-rived in our department in a fish bowl with two finny cohorts of a similarly golden hue. But, alas, things didn't agree with him, and he "turned up" his toes—we mean fins.

No one was aware of the pres-ence of the other creature that had made its way into our depart-

Four young men from Sao Paulo, Brazil, have recently ar-rived to study agriculture at Madi-son College. They are Julio Cesar Veto, Laercio Rebelo Martins, Dan-iel Rodriguez Passos, and Renato Augusto Preuss. Another new-comer who will take the course in agriculture is Mr. Baldwin Jack-son, from Utila, Honduras, who has been a teacher of agriculture and supervisor of the vegetable Production department at the Pan-American Agriculture School. Mr. Alvin Scheresky, from Max, North Dakota, is also a new agriculture student.

Mrs. Doris Clapp, director of nursing at Madison Hospital, and Miss Beulah Vickers, nursing in-structor, recently returned from General Conference and from at-tending a pre-meeting where Seventh-day Adventist nurses from all over the world had gath-ered to discuss problems affecting nurses and to make resolutions to be passed on to the General Con-ference committee.

The goal of the Seventh-day Adventist nurse, to be a co-worker with Christ, who ministered to both the soul and the body, was kept before those in attendance at the convention. Also the object of our medical institutions, to educate young people to fill need ed positions in foreign service as well as in the homeland, was emphasized.

A feature that helped empha-size this latter objective was the inspirational talks by missionary nurses from the heart of Equator-ial Africa, the Philippines, and other far-flung parts of the world. Said Mrs. Clapp; "Their enthusi-asm was contagious. Nothing was mentioned about the hardships of the journey, the deprivation, and meager facilities. Their shining

ment—that is not until a very un-pleasant odor began to emanate from somewhere on the band room, more specifically the stair-way leading up to the chapel ante-room.

Finally we persuaded someone to remove a couple of the steps, and there was our odoriferous vis-itor—a 'possum in the later stages of decomposition. Herbert Slater rather reluctantly but determined-ly removed the offensive creature. Now things are almost back to normal—atmospherically speaking. Thanks, Herbert, we're glad you came to the rescue. Now we can breathe again!

faces told of helping the poor unfortunate peoples of the world with healing, both spiritually and physically."

At this nurses' meeting Mrs. Clapp presented a paper on the relationship of practical nursing to Seventh-day Adventist institu-tions.

"We met Madison graduates who are working in our various institutions around the world," Mrs. Clapp reports.

"Wherever Seventh-day Advent-ists get together," she adds, "there is the meeting again of classmates, fellow-workers in other institu-tions, and long-separated friends. This indissoluble link, which all Seventh-day Adventist young peo-ple find in a college or school united in common purposes and ideals, is forged anew in meeting again as the years go by."

Miss D. Lois Burnett, General Conference Medical Department, was in charge of the nurses' meet-ing. In session at the same time was a medical section, of which Dr. Theodore Flaiz, also of the General Conference, was the di-rector. Dr. J. C. Gant, medical di-rector of Madison Hospital, was present at this meeting.

By now we are persuaded that it's good to be living in Williams Hall. All the old students re- turned for summer school after a nice long vacation. What a change took place during those four weeks! All the older students moved to Gotzian Home; we really miss them. The academy juniors and seniors moved from Gotzian to the first floor of Williams Hall: we welcome them to our dormi-tory.

Then, too, we have many new faces. Sue has had to learn who Christie is and Betty who Joyce is, and all who Ruth is. Only a few we are not acquainted with yet, and I suppose it's only because they and we have been busy work-ing and meeting our classes.

Ruby Sykes, who was with us last year and several years before that, visited us recently. She is now attending Southern Mission-ary College for the summer, pre-paring to teach in one of our church schools this fall.

Mary Ellen Eaves, Betty Jo Allred, and Tina Benson Sanders left on a recent Sunday morning for "Cinci" for their pediatrics affiliation.

Helen Pearson volunteered to work on O.B. for just a couple of hours one Sabbath afternoon. At seven p.m. Helen looked at the clock and became worried and even more worried when the supervisor told Miss Pearson that

she would need her till about ten p.m. Helen exclaimed, "Oh, but Mrs. Vest, I have a date!" Mrs. Vest, being one of our many un-derstanding supervisors, let Helen Pearson meet her date.

Watch out, girls! I saw Floyd McDaniel pick up some old cafe-teria silverware that Mrs. Wilson had discarded. Are you just filling up your hope chest, Floyd?

Wanda Thomas is getting too much nursing knowledge. Wanda intended to paint her roommate's decubitus area with benzoin; after the area was painted, the aroma told the girls it was cascara Wan-da had used. Was Wanda's face red!

A red-headed girl is supposed to be fiery and temperamental, but we know one who has been rather dreamy-eyed lately. By the same token a certain young man who usually has a ready joke on his tongue tip is looking a bit serious lately. Perhaps you've al-ready guessed our news. Yes, Ag-nes Effenburg and Steve Dorosh have announced their engage-ment. The wedding date has not been set yet.

Bye for now; until next time—remember to keep smiling.

for years and which, after many long hours of hard work, is now a reality.

The pool, which has all tile walls and a concrete bottom, holds 138,000 gallons of water, is ap-proximately 100 feet long and 30 feet wide, and varies in depth from 3 to 10 feet. There is one thing missing right now, how-ever; the swimming pool needs a name. At the present time the Student-Teachers' Council is try-ing to decide upon an appropri-ate name.

It is 100 feet long and 30 feet wide, vary-ing in depth from three to ten feet, Everyone is combating the summer temperatures by relaxing in the new pool. It is really a thing of beauty, worth twenty-five to thirty thousand dollars, but costing the institution only about six thousand dollars because of the whole-hearted and united ef-forts of the students and teachers in building it.
